One of my long pending tasks finally saw fruition yesterday. During the winters, my wardrobe had become very messy. It was as if the things were dumped there. The worst problem was finding out socks and handkerchief. However I spent couple of hours yesterday in what might be termed as "Early summer cleaning" to clean and sort out things. Now it looks much better. And I have rearranged in a way that the more frequently needed things are at top and in front snx rest at bottom and behind. It makes one feel good as well!

It is always good to go through the closet at least every month or a couple of months Things tend to pile up.

@RasmaSandra yes but often we delay due to lack of time or plain laziness!

My wardrobe is neat and well arranged, but I have too many clothing, there are things I should donate.

@just4him yes it helps us save time- even if that time is 4 to 5 minutes or even lesser. Also, we feel much better on seeing things.

That's a great accomplishment. It's something that I really cannot do perfectly and considering that I have a simple wardrobe.

@florelway you have to plan for a day. Focus on the task that day, and take your time. Once done, you would be much happier!! And by the way, the day you do so, and complete the task successfully, send my consultation fees of 15 USD by Paypal!!

@LadyDuck even I would be giving clothes to a clothing outlet here who recycle clothes. They even take torn and unusable clothes. @maezee yes one feels better after such a setting.

@Shavkat this is something that takes time but makes us happy. @arthurchappell yes tidying and sorting does helps. By the way, do you have any relation to the family of Three Australian cricket players of 1970s and 80s- Greg, Ian and Trevor Chappell? Just wondering !

@hereandthere these tasks take time. Even I hanged some clothes to dry with the help of my daughter, and then put clothes to wash in the washing machine.

Thats a good way of moving "energies" in the house, when you do re-arrange, get rid of the clutter and unwanted things.

@gautaam You reminded me of this word "Declutter" . Next on my agenda would be re-categorizing, sorting and cleaning up of my files with documents. Currently, the arrangement looks like a Coalition Government with no clear agenda!!

I need to try on my shorts again and put away the winter clothes. I think I might do that next week.
